Letter: Propaganda

OMG. I couldnít believe my eyes when I read Donna Brazileís column (July 1, 2014). What a propaganda piece. For those who donít know, she is a democrat operative who is close to the Clintons and defends Obama more than anyone else.

OMG. I couldnít believe my eyes when I read Donna Brazileís column (July 1, 2014). What a propaganda piece. For those who donít know, she is a democrat operative who is close to the Clintons and defends Obama more than anyone else. This ďhitĒ piece was the most unbelievable I have ever read. She speaks about how the Republicans are obstructing Obamaís agenda. When he was re-elected, he did not have a mandate. He had 51 percent of the vote. Does that mean that the 49 percent who did not vote for him should just roll over and disappear? Itís half of the people in this country. What does not get covered by the drive-by media is that the House Republicans have passed scores of bills, all of which have died in the Senate because Majority Leader Harry Reid refuses to bring them up for a vote, much less for debate. The real obstructionist is Reid. But you wonít hear that on the news or see it in newsprint. In this column she goes on and on that itís all the Republicans fault. But the biggest, and most foul, of her statements is when she said ďRepublicans have held up the nominations of our ambassadors, creating a backlog so serious it has interfered with the presidentís efforts to constrain the advance of terrorists in Iraq.Ē What? I knew someone would try to find a lie they could use to blame the Republicans, yet again, for this presidentís failings.

I guess she missed the memo that Reid changed the rules on nominations months ago in order to bypass the Republicans and only need 51 votes (which the Dems have), instead of a majority, to get nominations through. Even with that, does she really think that an ambassador was going to stop ISIS? The situation in Iraq is Obamaís doing. Propaganda coming from the Left just goes on and on. Itís sickening that they think the American people are so stupid.
